Abstract

Axial and lateral behavior of helical piles is generally influenced by number, diameter, helix pitch, and locations of helices. In this study, axial and horizontal behavior of helical piles with three helices was investigated varying helices' locations, diameter, and pitch. Especially, due to the spiral shapes of helices, the effect of lateral load directions at pile heads on their lateral behavior was investigated. Axial load test of small-scale helical pile was conducted in laboratory, and its results were compared with numerical analysis results of the same model for cross check of validity of both results. Furthermore, diverse numerical analyses were performed for different shapes of helical piles. Consequently, it was found that, for the given analysis conditions, the helix diameter was the most influential factor on the horizontal and vertical behavior of helical piles.

헬리컬 파일의 수직 및 수평 거동은 헬릭스의 개수, 직경, 피치, 위치등의 변수에 영향을 받는다. 본 연구에서는 헬리컬 파일의 헬릭스 개수를 3개로 고정하고, 헬릭스의 위치, 직경, 피치를 변화시켜 가며 수직 및 수평 거동을 분석하였다, 특히, 헬릭스는 일반적으로 나선형의 입체적인 구조를 가지기 때문에, 헬리컬 파일 상부에 작용하는 수평하중방향이 헬리컬 파일의 수평 거동에 미치는 영향을 분석하였다. 이를 위하여 축소모형의 헬리컬 파일을 이용하여 실내모형실험을 수행하였으며, 이 결과를 같은 모델의 수치해석 결과와 비교하여 두 결과의 타당성을 확보하였다. 이후, 수치해석적으로 다양한 헬리컬 파일 형상을 가정하여 수직 및 수평 거동을 분석하였다. 결과적으로, 가정한 환경에 대해서는 헬릭스의 위치와 피치의 간격보다는 헬릭스의 직경이 수직 및 수평 지지력에 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 것으로 확인되었다.
